Bazzite and ChimeraOS are good contenders for that use case if you weren’t aware of them, to the point that I am plannng on using one for setting up a system as a “gaming console” for a family member and an email howto should be good enough for minimal tech support on my part.

Just setup ChimeraOS on an 8845HS box this past weekend and really liking it. I do wish there were a few more emulators configured in the box, and there are some rough edges (the second activated controller is always controller 1 in games for some reason). It's been relatively nice all around.

I do wish there was some slightly better platform specific documentation though.
